Palm Coast’s third annual ‘Sky’s the Limit’ Touch-a-Truck event is returning to Central Park on May 27.

Over 75 trucks and vehicles from multiple agencies will line Park Street in Central Park. The event will run from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., with a “horn free” hour from 10-11 a.m., according to a press release from the city. The free event will be hosted by the Palm Coast Public Works Department in celebration of National Public Works week.

Park Street, Lake Avenue and part of City Place will be closed for the event. Kids will be able to get in the driver’s seat of a helicopter, dump truck and fire ladder truck, among others. Among the agencies participating are the city’s Public Works, Stormwater, Utility and Fire Departments, the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office, the Florida Highway Patrol, NASCAR and Angel Flight.

Public Works Workforce Data Analyst Benny Cooper said the event has grown significantly since last year.

“We are beyond ecstatic to have the community-wide involvement,” he said. “This event is back and the sky’s the limit.”
